The Investment Board of Nepal expects the Summit to generate substantial interest from global investors, paving the way for increased FDI inflows across various sectors, including infrastructure, energy, tourism, manufacturing, IT, real estate, hydropower, mining, and agriculture.
As Nepal continues to prioritize economic development and create a favorable investment climate, the third Nepal Investment Summit represents a significant milestone in the country’s efforts to attract foreign capital, expertise, and technology, ultimately contributing to its long-term economic prosperity.
